Leinster Leader Articles 1903:

The Gordon Bennett Motor Race 1903

Introduction.

The following information is taken from the Leinster
Leader Newspaper
for 1903 and contains all the references to the Gordon Bennett Race for
that year, as well as some material of general interest relating to roads
and transport for that period. No reference to the race appeared in 1902.
The material is published here by kind permission of the Leinster Leader.

The material was compiled and edited by Mario Corrigan of
the Local
Studies Department,
Main St. Newbridge and painstakingly typed by Martina
Thomas of Kildare Co. Library. It is
published here in association with Kildare Community
Network.
Thanks also to Breda Gleeson, Co. Librarian, for her support and
for the allocation of resources.

Research and promotion of the Gordon Bennett Centenary highlighted the
importance of the work of the History and Family Research
Centre, one of
the principal aims of which, is easy access to primary/original source
material such as the Leinster Leader Newspaper.
